Mamelodi Sundowns XI to face Baroka FC: Mokoena in first Masandawana start

The Ugandan goalkeeper returned from injury last Friday when he started against Al Hilal Omdurman in a Caf Champions League match.

Onyango has a record of nine clean sheets in 13 PSL games this season but had conceded in the last four league matches he has featured in.

The 26-year-old is known for overlapping and delivering good crosses inside the box and he would be hoping to provide assists or score his first goal in Sundowns colours.

In the last few games, Lakay has managed to shut out Divine Lunga and he continues on the left side of defence.

The Cape Town-born defender is facing a potentially tough afternoon to neutralise Baroka star forward Evidence Makgopa.

The Kenya international has been enjoying some playing minutes of late due to the absence of injured Mosa Lebusa.

This is Onyango's fourth league start of the season.

Mokoena starts for the first time in Sundowns colours.

He has been selected in place of Rivaldo Coetzee who is out.

Just like Coetzee, Jali is a sure starter whenever fit and he has formed a solid central midfield combination with the former.

Zwane will be looking for his sixth league goal of the season and to provide a fifth assist in the same competition.

He was on target in the reverse league fixture against Baroka at home and he goes into this match buoyed by his goal last Friday which separated Sundowns and Al Hilal.

With Gaston Sirino out injured, Ralani has been brought in to start his second league game in Masandawana colours.

The Namibian has been enduring a dry spell of five consecutive games across all competitions without scoring and would want to find the back of the next and enhance his chances of ending the season as the top scorer.

Shalulile has started in Sundowns' all 21 league games this season.

The Slovak has managed four league goals so far in his debut PSL season and would be keen to add more.
